As people move away from getting china and crystal, I've noticed my friends registering for different items, like home furniture, season tickets to sports events, disposable home items like piping bags, and even iphones. At the same time, most of the people in my family feel strongly that the only things on your registry for the wedding should be nice items you'll use "forever" (they'll accept normal kitchen items like mixing bowls for the shower, but not for the wedding). They also strongly oppose registering for furniture, experiences, and technology. It's been interesting registering while trying to keep both my family and friends expectations in mind, while also making sure I ask for things I actually want.
How do you feel about registries? Does anything go for you, or do you only like to buy gifts in a certain category? How does your circle approach registries?
